Clearly he DOES realize you like him. After you've sent him more than one phone message and text, no way he would not be aware of your interest. Unfortunately, he doesn't appear to share your interest, and even though he may think you're a nice person, does not want to encourage you.
You'd do well to stop trying to contact him now. You don't want to embarrass yourself by continuing to pursue him. Let this go, and you'll surely find, sooner or later, an equally attractive guy who DOES want to get to know you as a potential girlfriend! When you meet that person, take it slowly and ENJOY!

The question then is for yourself: why would you want someone who isn't mature enough to show respect and understanding?
... please don't kid yourself into believing you can change him. I reckon he thinks he's quite adequate as he is, but even if he thought he could improve a bit, it won't be because of you. So do YOURSELF the courtesy he can't do, and rid yourself of the burden of wanting this juvenile, very poor imitation of a man.

It's a statement that can be taken the way you thought and that he really digged you and was into you or that he thought you were a nice person and fun to get along with and that he sees you as a friend.
Maybe he thought you were nice but not what he was looking for in a girlfriend. That he hasn't called you or texted you would indicate that this last statement is closer to home.
Just keep dating other young men. You will find someone.
Take care.
